πTips for Leveling Your Washing Machine to Prevent Damage π§π§―
With these steps, you can level your washing machine:
Turn off the Power Supply β‘οΈ
Before you start working on your washing machine, turn off the power supply to prevent any accidents. π«π₯
Check the floor π
Make sure that the floor is level and stable. An unlevel or unstable floor can cause your washing machine to become unlevel. ππ£
Adjust the Legs π©
Locate the legs of your washing machine. You'll usually find them at the bottom of the machine. Use a wrench or pliers to adjust the legs' height until the machine is level. Check the bubble level on top of the machine to make sure it's level in both directions. π π
Check for Balance βοΈ
Once you've adjusted the legs' height, check for balance by rocking the machine gently. If it's still unstable, use a wooden block or shim to adjust it further. π
Check Level Again π
Check the machine's level again with a bubble level. Make sure it's leveled both front to back and side to side. π
Test the Machine π§ͺ
Turn the power back on and test the machine by running a cycle. Check for any vibrations, noise, or leaks. If everything seems to be working fine, you're done. βοΈπ¦π
